The Navigation Acts, directed the flow of goods between England and the colonies. Colonial merchants who had goods to send to England could not use foreign ships- even if those ships offered cheaper rates. The Navigation Acts also prevented the colonies from sending certain products, such as sugar or tobacco, outside England's empire.

If a colonist bought cloth from France what happened to it under rules of the Navigation Acts?

Under the Navigation Acts, if a colonist bought cloth from France, the cloth would be subject to customs duties upon arrival in the colonies. The Acts mandated that certain goods could only be shipped to England or its colonies on English ships, meaning that the colonist would likely face additional taxes or restrictions. Furthermore, the colonist would have to pay import duties, thereby increasing the cost of the cloth. Ultimately, these regulations aimed to ensure that England benefited economically from colonial trade.
